In this episode of Executive with a Cause, host Tammy Ven Dange chats with Chris Hatherly of the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia. Like many Not for Profits, The Academy's funding sources include government grants. Chris shares his experience adjusting to changes in government funding models and how the organisation is reducing their reliance on a source that can change with government agendas.   Chris also talks about the organisation's transition from a secretary to a CEO approach and how they manage to work with high-profile members to create a cohesive strategy for lobbying. We hear how regular, coordinated efforts are more successful than once-off interactions with policy-makers, and Chris provides further tips on how to build influential relationships with government members.   Finally, Chris explains how he has tailored Salesforce to handle their complex member election process and the benefits of customising the platform for grant management. Chris also outlines his interest in innovative employee benefits, as Not for Profits face the continual challenge of attracting quality talent in a competitive labour market.

'If he wants to follow me, I can't stop him.' After a random encounter with poet and author Ellis Gunn at an auction, a stranger decides to stalk her. Years later, she sits down to write about the experience – and realises it's connected to a lifetime of gendered abuse, including surviving both sexual assault and domestic violence. In this wide-ranging and compelling interview, Ellis discusses what she learned through the experience of writing her debut memoir, Rattled, including the psychological impacts of stalking, the reactions of her family and friends, and the concepts of agency deletion and radical empathy.  Ellis Gunn is a Scottish writer and poet who now lives in Australia. Her poetry, essays and reviews have been published widely in the UK and she has performed at the Edinburgh Fringe, Edinburgh Book Festival and the British Embassy in Berlin. She lives near the beach with her partner, two children, a cat and some ants.

‘Wanted' posters. Your local neighbourhood watch. CrimeStoppers. There's a long tradition of citizens assisting law enforcement in reporting illegal activities and identifying criminals. In part one of the ‘What Happens Next?' podcast's investigation into digital vigilantism, host Dr Susan Carland and her expert guests examined the ways that behaviour can go awry, sometimes even translating into real-world violence. In part two of this series, you'll learn whether or not digital vigilantism can be used for good – and what you should do if you encounter it. Join Monash University Criminologist Dr Lennon Chang; Monash Dr Mark Howard, a philosopher working in the Monash Data Futures Institute; Monash alumnus and violent extremism expert Dr Josh Roose; and journalist Ginger Gorman, author of ‘Troll Hunting'. Wondering if the concept of “an eye for an eye” still has a place in our changing world?

It's easy to see why the concept of vigilante justice resonates with so many people. In the last few years, social movements from #MeToo to BLM have made us very aware of the wrongdoers who've escaped accountability, and the victims who've been let down, or even wrongly targeted, by existing systems and laws. But when internet users take matters into their own hands, problems can arise. Across the political spectrum, groups are enacting digital vigilantism to try to right perceived wrongs, and even to exact their own forms of justice. Host Dr Susan Carland is joined by journalist Ginger Gorman, author of 'Troll Hunting'; criminologist Dr Lennon Chang, philosopher Dr Mark Howard, and violent extremism expert and Monash alumnus Dr Josh Roose. They'll discuss the dark side of digital vigilantism, and answer the question: Does it really work? A full transcription of this episode is available on Monash Lens. 'What Happens Next?' will be back next week with part two of this series: "Are There Good Trolls?". In the meantime, check out Dr Mark Howard's take on the Caped Crusader, and Batman's changing approach to vigilante justice.

Beauty industry entrepreneur Kate Morris has given her imposter syndrome's voice in her head a name: "That's just Kevin, you can zip it Kevin," she laughs. And she gets on with her day. And she's not alone. Researchers have found around 70 per cent of us feel like an imposter some of the time at work (...and let's face it the other 30 per cent are probably lying).  So since these feelings are so common, we've decided it's time we gave this ‘syndrome' a rebrand and learned how use it to help, not hinder, our careers. (This program was first broadcast on Monday June 28, 2021.)

Ginger Gorman from The Seriously Social podcast takes RN Drive through her favourite social media picks from the week.

Today's storyteller is Dr Yona Nebel-Jacobsen! Yona is a geochemist based in Melbourne Australia, she works with isotopes, and she teaches me so much cool geology straight away. In this episode we talk about what a geochemist does, if it was the "geo" or the "chem" part that appealed to her, the nonlinear twisty path she took to her current position, and about all things in between. Yona is also part of Homeward Bound in the 4th cohort (I'm in the 5th) and so we talk a bit about our experiences in the HB program too. I love meeting fellow HBers and instant friends and so that's been a fun bonus of this whole podcast project. So it was doubly wonderful to meet Yona, hear her stories, and I hope y'all enjoy! --- You can find Rachel Villani on Twitter @flyingcypress and Storytellers of STEMM on Facebook and on the shiny new Twitter account @storytellers42.

Working as a freelancer can be exhilarating. Jumping from assignment to assignment, dealing with different people and challenges, hitting your deadlines, and hitting it out of the park. These days, it can also be a life full of low-paying gigs or no-paying gigs, having your work ripped off and plagiarised and dealing with employers who think they are doing you a favour by letting you work for them.So is it still worth the effort?

Ginger is a successful freelance social justice journalist and the author of the book "Troll Hunting". She's been underpaid, overworked, plagiarised and patronised - but she's still out there kicking against the pricks and making it work for herself.Ginger joins Francis and Sally to discuss the pitfalls and pleasures of the freelance life.

Social media is making us more unhappy, less safe, and in some cases just stupider. This while the power of these websites grows unstoppably: Facebook now has more adherents than Christianity. In this episode we're taking on just two aspects of the social media problem: the way it spreads fake news, and the vicious nature of the conversation. We're looking at a counter-intuitively simple fix for the issue of misinformation, and talking to a South African researcher who is using the tricks of trolls and bots for good rather than evil.
